This set of 28 tiles are colour printed on one side with clear detailed photographic images of real fruit and vegetables. The photographic imagery allows children to relate these to the real world and promotes discussion.
- Ideal for promoting discussions about healthy eating; how fruit and vegetables are grown and which climate they are best grown in; which are our favourites and which ones we haven't tried yet
- Increase vocabulary by using descriptive language and mathematical language
- Improve fine motor skills by gripping; rotating and turning over tiles
- Promote imaginative play and collaborative play
Ways to play:
1. As a matching game - turn all the tiles face up and match the whole fruit / vegetable with its corresponding slice image
2. As a memory game - turn all the tiles face down and try to remember where the matching fruit or vegetable pairs are located
3. For sorting into food groups - by colour; variety (fruit or vegetable); seeds/no seeds; texture; sweet/sour/savoury flavour or grouped in fruit or vegetable size order
